hello eveyone!!
today i am here to show you a suitcase i created using Eileen Hull’s suitcase die!
i created the outside by stamping, embossing with the newest embossing powder to hit and stay on my desk, the burnt cooper leaves from Emerald Creek and inking with my distress ink. i also added a real set of leather straps and a set of Tim Holtz buckles. as you will see for the handle i used some ring fasteners to attach a piece i had in my jewellery drawer!!
isn’t the handle the cutest!
i absolutely loved it BUT wanted it to reflect a bit more of who i am…..
so i created the inside to be a color burst of colour!!!!
now that is a suitcase i would love to own and travel with wouldn’t you!
thanks for stopping by!!

I really, really like the handle. Really creative way to do that. The pop of color is really fun, too.
[…] Diana Hetherington has a Sizzix Suitcase project that is more than meets the eye! Don’t judge this suitcase by its realistic vintage looking cover. […]
